Mine was more or less out of necessity... I was looking for an SUV type vehicle, but nothing to huge or expensive and my ex-fiance had just bought her TJ and was really happy with it. I was driving a 1994 Chevy Z-71 at the time and I absolutely loved it, but was giving me problems every time I had more than $1k saved in the bank. *It literally worked like that too* My truck had over 120k miles on it and a lot of things were starting to go out on it. Things like the ******, various gaskets, ignition problems, engine, and more.
I had already gone to a dealership and test drove the same Liberty a couple of times already. Finally I went down to the dealership while they were having a 0% financing deal. I told them that I would only buy if I got the 0% and got what I wanted for my truck.
Well... I signed the papers and everything was good until I get a phone call... "Mr. &*(#@$%#!, we aren't able to get you the 0% after all, but we can get you 6% and it will only raise your payment by..." Before he even finished that sentenc I told him to have my truck ready and I would be down to pick it up ASAP. So, another twenty minutes later they call me back and tell me I'm good to go for the 0% financing & they had to reduce the price of the Liberty and give me more for the truck.
I bought my Liberty with almost 500 miles *most of them put there by me* and have loved it ever since. The first 8 months I had it I was already getting the use out of it. I was in the police academy (a part-time academy), and working full-time as a dispatcher for a department. It had all my gear for both department's *gun, belt, radio, 2 - 3 uniforms *depending on the day*, two completely different & huge gear bags, and a cooler with water and energy drinks for myself and the other cadets. All of that was pretty much in there for more than 20 hours a day, 5 days a week, for 8 months.
